Overdue Accounts

Any account which is overdue will attract interest at the rate of interest (however described) equivalent to 14% per annum. Nothing in this clause imposes an obligation on Stockyard and Fencing Solutions to extend the payment term to the Customer for any period at all.
Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may elect (in its absolute discretion) to neither dispatch any product nor accept any further orders from the Customer with Stockyard and Fencing Solutions if the Customer’s account is overdue.

Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may elect (in its absolute discretion) to commence legal proceedings against the Customer for the recovery of any account which is overdue.

Personal Property Securities Law

By obtaining Goods supplied by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions or signing the Application for Commercial Credit, the Customer acknowledges that these terms and conditions and the transactions contemplated by them, constitute a security interest for the purposes of the PPS Law in Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s goods supplied to the Customer by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions under these terms and conditions (the “Security Interest”).
The Customer must do anything (including amending these terms and conditions or amending, executing or completing any document, obtaining consents and supplying information) that Stockyard and Fencing Solutions considers necessary for the purposes of:

  • Ensuring that the Security Interest is enforceable, perfected or otherwise effective and has the highest priority possible under the PPS Law; and
  • Enabling Stockyard and Fencing Solutions to apply for any registration, give any notification and exercise rights in connection with the Security Interest.

In this clause 11:

  • “PPS Act” means the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth);
  • “PPS Law” means the PPS Act, and other associated legislation and regulations, as amended from time to time;
  • Terms defined in the PPS Act and used herein having the meaning ascribed to them in that Act.

To the extent that Chapter 4 of the PPS Act applies to the enforcement of the Security Interest, the Customer agrees that sections 95, 96, 121(4), 125, 130, 132(3)(d), 132(4), 135, 142 and 143 of the PPS Act will not apply to such enforcement.
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that until the Customer pays Stockyard and Fencing Solutions in full for the goods, the security interest under these terms and conditions relates to the products and all proceeds of sale in respect of those Goods and the Customer must not allow any third party to acquire a security interest in those Goods.
If the Customer makes a payment to Stockyard and Fencing Solutions at any time Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may, in its absolute discretion, apply that payment to first satisfy obligations that are not secured, then obligations that are secured, but not by a purchase money security interest (“PMSI”), in the order in which those obligations were incurred, and then obligations that are secured by a PMSI in the order in which those obligations were incurred. The Customer agrees:

  • To the maximum extent permitted by law, to waive any right to receive a verification statement or financing change statement in respect of the Security Interest;
  • To indemnify, and on demand reimburse Stockyard and Fencing Solutions for all expenses incurred in registering a financing statement or financing change statement on the Personal Properties Securities Register or releasing any Goods the subject of the Security Interest;
  • Not register a financing change statement without Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s prior written consent;
  • To give 14 days prior written notice of any proposed change in the Customer’s name, details (including contact details or business practices) and immediately advise Stockyard and Fencing Solutions of any material change in the Customers practices of selling any of the Goods subject to the Security Interest which would result in a change in the nature of the proceeds derived from such sales; and
  • That these terms and conditions constitute a “confidentiality agreement” for the purposes of section 275 of the PPS Act and neither the Customer nor Stockyard and Fencing Solutions disclose any information of the kind mentioned in section 275(1) of the PPS Act, unless required to do so under the PPS Law.

Government Charges

Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s prices are exclusive of GST and all other applicable taxes, levies, duties and government charges, but if GST or other existing or new tax, levy, duty or government charge is payable, it is to the Customer’s account and must be paid at the same time as the Customer pays for the Goods.

Assignment

The Customer must not assign, novate, transfer, sub-contract, sub-licence or otherwise dispose of any or all of the Customer’s rights or benefits under these terms and conditions, unless the Customer has obtained Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s prior written consent (which Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may withhold in its absolute discretion). Any assignment, etc by the Customer without Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s consent shall entitle Stockyard and Fencing Solutions to avoid any liability Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may have to the Customer under these terms and conditions. Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may assign, novate, transfer, sub-contract, sub-licence or otherwise dispose of any or all of its rights and/or obligations under these terms and conditions to any person without the Customer’s consent and, in the case of novation, the Customer and Stockyard and Fencing Solutions and the relevant third party must each execute a novation agreement in a form prescribed by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions.

Force Majeure

The Customer agrees that they must accept delayed delivery and/or cancellation of an order and make no claim against Stockyard and Fencing Solutions for any delay in delivery, cancellation or any damaged product delivered to the Customer or for any breach of these terms and conditions or any other failure by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions arising as a direct or indirect result of events beyond Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s control, including, natural occurrences, industrial disputes, failure of Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s equipment or machinery or failure of any of Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s employees or sub-contractors.

Intellectual Property and Confidentiality

These terms and conditions do not give the Customer any intellectual property rights in Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s Goods or in any promotional literature, technical documents or other information provided or made available to the Customer.
The Customer’s details and information that is provided to Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may be retained by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions on its database. The Customer has no rights in that database. Stockyard and Fencing Solutions may use such database in the conduct of its business, subject to privacy and other relevant laws.
Stockyard and Fencing Solutions is not liable for any infringement or unauthorised use of any intellectual property rights arising from these terms and conditions.

The Customer must indemnify and hold Stockyard and Fencing Solutions (and its affiliates, employees and sub-contractors) harmless against all losses, liabilities and costs (including legal expenses) sustained, incurred or suffered by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions (or its affiliates, Stockyard and Fencing Solutions or sub- contractors) as a result of any claim, action or proceeding that the use, possession or receipt by Stockyard and Fencing Solutions (or its affiliates, Stockyard and Fencing Solutions or sub-contractors) of any data, information or materials (in whatever form, including in electronic format) provided or made available by the Customer infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party.
In these terms and conditions, “intellectual property rights” includes the full benefit of any rights in any copyright, trademark, registered design, patent, trade and business names, inventions, know-how, improvements, discoveries, confidential processes and information, and includes artistic works, images, designs, motifs and photographs and any adaptation or concept relating to it.
If the Customer receives any confidential or proprietary information from Stockyard and Fencing Solutions the Customer must not use or disclose such information to any person, unless the Customer has first obtained Stockyard and Fencing Solutions’s prior written consent (which it may withhold in its absolute discretion), such information has entered the public domain (other than through a breach of confidentiality owed by any person) or the use or disclosure of such information is required by law.
